Calling Mark Horan
 
Hi everyone.

I do not know if Mark E Horan frequents this board, but if someone is in contact with him, I am interested in a recent post he made on another board, where I am not a member.
One of the intriguing failures of the RAF and Royal Navy was to make the most of the US aircraft they got in 1940, especially the carrier fighters (Brewster Buffalo and Grumman Martlet).
18 Buffalos were sent to Alexandria for use abord the Eagle. Apparently Horan has a report prepared by Commander Keighly-Peach rejecting the Buffalo. Now, the Brewster Buffalo enjoyes the privilege of having the most exhaustive website of any aircraft I know off. The Annals of the Brewster Buffalo, maintained by the American author Daniel Ford. This report really should be there.

yours hopefully.

Not sure if this is the other board you refer to but, if not, you may be able to contact Mr. Horan through the Battle of Midway Roundtable at http://home.comcast.net/~r2russ/midway/#Top
